Who Treats a Mesothelioma Patient?
A thoracic surgical oncologist. This is a doctor who specializes in the surgeries of the pleural (the lungs) and pericardial (the sac that surrounds the heart) types of mesothelioma.
The same goes for the abdomen if the mesothelioma is located there, where you would have an abdominal surgeon who would treat the peritoneal ( abdominal lining and cavity) type of mesothelioma.
A surgeon is part of your treatment team who may be removing abnormal cells and tumors called mesothelioma from any of the regions where mesothelioma typically develops.
All these persons involved in the treatment of Mesothelioma are part of a team where after you are diagnosed the oncology team work together to create a care plan to work towards the ultimate goal of trying to do the very best to treat you and your mesothelioma cancer.
